Doesn't mean the old ones are going away, though. 
Depressing tropics
| | So we're cruising for the next week around the Yucatan peninsula: Cozomel, etc. With side trips to Belize and the Cayman Islands. |
| | I just checked the weather. Oy vay: |
| | The hurricane season's 20th tropical depression formed in the western Caribbean Sea on Saturday, prompting the Mexican government to issue tropical storm warnings for the Yucatan Peninsula, forecasters said. |
| | At 11 a.m. EDT, the depression was located about 125 miles east-southeast of Tulum, Mexico, and about 110 miles southeast of Cozumel, the National Hurricane Center in Miami said. The system had sustained winds of 30 mph, and was moving to the west-northwest near 6 mph. |
| | If this map is right, it'll go into central Mexico. Hope so. |
Wow.
Colorado Color
| | I was bummed, as my departure for the latest Geek Cruise approached, that my Nikon was still in the shop. But, in a stroke of good luck, it arrived just in time. So I got to take my customary advantage of flying by a window seat when I departed for Tampa by way of Denver, early yesterday morning. California, Nevada and most of Utah were under a lot of haze, but the skies were clear over Colorado, where aspens amidst the evergreens glowed with yellow and orange. |
| | I also got a nice view again of what used to be a mystery for me: The Castles, in the West Elk Wilderness. Some nice views of those here, here and in other shots in that series. The window was scratched and dirty, but the shots came out pretty well, considering. |
